Transformers: Fall Of Cybertron Announced

06. Oct, 2011

The battle between the Autobots and Decepticons continues in the followup to last year’s Transformers: War For Cybertron, arguably the best interpretation of the Transformers mythology, with much respect to the awesome PlayStation 2 Transformers game.

As a fan of the series, I can attest to High Moon Studio’s attention to the mythology, as well as the care they take in bringing these characters to the video game screen with a love that only true fans can bring.

It’s excited to think about what new additions this followup will have. But one thing is certain. High Moon listens to their fans, and some of the suggestions that have been thrown out there would make for amazing gaming set-pieces.

“High Moon Studios is an extremely talented development team having raised the bar of gameplay and TRANSFORMERS authenticity in their games,” said David Oxford, Executive Vice President at Activision Publishing. “TRANSFORMERS: FALL OF CYBERTRON is an extraordinary project both for the studio and the TRANSFORMERS gaming legacy – the stakes are higher and the scale much larger than ever before, and we absolutely cannot wait for fans to see all the new characters and epic action that awaits them.”

“Hasbro has worked hand in hand with Activision to create a fully original storyline that details the climactic battles leading to the famed exodus of the TRANSFORMERS characters from CYBERTRON,” said Mark Blecher, SVP of Digital Media and Marketing, Hasbro. “Our team at Hasbro is looking forward to exploring and expanding the TRANSFORMERS story again with an incredible blockbuster video game that will blow fans away next year.”
